Restart primary database - stupid question

James GordonApr 13 2010 — edited Apr 15 2010
I have a 10.1 primary database and have set, via OEM, DG with a physical standby database on another server.
I can use DG to switch the standby from read-only to standby and back.
My studpid question is that I need to stop and restart my primary database and I'm worried that if I shutdown the primary database that DG/OEM will see it down and try and set the standby as the primary.
I'm not sure where to look to see if it will automatically fail over or not. In this case I'm hoping not and that in a failure situation in the future I'd have to manually switch roles to make the standby database the primary database.
Hope it all makes sense?

James.
